Film School/course/academy Film, movie, set production, storyboards, screenplays, ect, will be a big part of my life over the next few months, 6 months to b exact, so may as well create a section just for that.

I've never done anything like this before, so not sure how to feel about it.
When drunk all the time, sure, you can dream, complain, wonder about stuff, fantasize about this and that, but when sober, and actually able to 'do it', then what?
I mean there's a lot of things I think I want to do when I'm drunk, but when sober, do I still have the same passion for it?
Not only that, but I'm older now, I mean when a younger male, lust for others is what drives you every move, but when older, that lust begins to fade, and so now you have to have other reasons for wanting to be around others. Do I have another reason?
I don't know, other than trying to prove something to myself, do I have a reason for wanting to work in the film industry?
Excitement?, which is something my blue collar jobs all lack.
Recognition?
I mean maybe what I'm paying for is to finally 'matter' again, and to form relationships again, with real people, something I haven't had in forever.
I don't know, we'll see.
I could of just taken what money I had and just bought some land, a RV and just lived a hermit of a life, but to live you must have purpose, and relationships with others (I do believe) give us that purpose, that drive.
Anyways, we shall see, stay tuned cause lots more to follow.

Should be studying now, but mind is tired.
Burning mind celeries will make you feel just as tired of burning red muscle calories.
And besides, right now I have to watch 'The GodFather', then write about it, write about the protagonist and antagonist, and ect.
Anyways, mind is wore out, time to lay back and fade off.
Had a scary zombie dream the other night, these zombies were extra pale and just freaky.

Ordered this gimbel, a must use if you want more professional looking videos
Still charging it up, so no review yet, but this video here is an excellent tutorial on set up, cause there's no directions in the bag, or not useful ones anyways.

This video is actually for me to come back to later for reference on how to use the manual settings in cameras
One of the best camera training videos ever, for sure.

Cheap Amazon ordered camcorder vs higher end Canon EOS...you decide
I think both cameras did well for their perspective class.

Simple solution if can't read camera displays
Not sure why I didn't think of this long ago, even works on other camcorders etc.
I'm so lagging in technology.

Cancelled a phone session with my script advisor today...just wasn't feeling it, probably because I was in party mode last night.
I want my head to be clear and straight when I rebook our session.
Not only that but I only have less than 2 months left in this course...then what?
I wish things would slow down, I really do.

I'd like to turn this into a movie one day
Although it's actually supposed to be a comedy drama, this practice sketch trailer makes it seem more like a horror suspense movie.
Lady Kqueen and the Prince.

Very good lesson on how to pitch your movie
This is good, didn't think it would be, but she hits a lot of good points
about pitching a movie to a producer.

This is a must watch for those wanting to know how to get your screenplay read or seen by a industry gatekeeper
This guy's telling the truth, but the truth doesn't always agree with our dreams or vision.

Final verdict.
Don't get into film unless
1. Already a millionaire and have money to fund your projects.
2. Know someone high up, who's already in the industry who can scoot you along.
3. Very young, and have a lot of time to kill, and money to live off of while you kill that time.
And if you have a wonderful script, it's almost better to just turn it into a book, get notoriety that way, and have someone big buy your book, or the rights to your story.
It's a lot cheaper that way.
